<AWT Dev> [9] Review request for 8012224: AWT_TopLevels/TopLevelEvents/Automated/WindowIconifyDeiconifyEventsTest02 fails on Ubuntu 12.04 Unity shell

[Anthony Petrov]

Hi Alexander,

1. What does this request do if a window being deiconified is 
unfocusable, or otherwise shouldn't receive focus after deiconification? 
Does this operation generate any focus events or make the window focused?

2. src/solaris/classes/sun/awt/X11/XNETProtocol.java
> 330         if (!active() && !checkProtocol(XA_NET_SUPPORTED, XA_NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW)) {

The condition should actually read as if (!a || !b).

best regards,
Anthony
